Safe Mode XP - heavy artillery in the fight against viruses and system problems.

Once you notice that your computer has becomevery slowly to work, independently and arbitrarily to be overloaded or not to be loaded at all. The reasons can be very different. From problems with malware to hardware problems with overheating, hard disk or video adapter.

There is a fairly reliable way to determine"nature" of the problem even to the average user who is using computer technology on you. Loading a safe mode can be a way out of the problem situation. Due to the fact that Microsoft software is available even to the inexperienced, you, if you are a novice user, will easily and easily understand any of the most common problems. For example, you are quite capable of removing computer viruses. And now safely try to load a safe mode. XP is installed on many PCs as the primary operating system. According to many users and experts - this is the best that is developed by Microsoft. When the corporation tried in an agreement with the leading manufacturers to supply notebooks with preinstalled Vista, many paid significant sums to the craftsmen, service engineers, because only those could install on the familiar Windows XP system.

So, back to our problem -stationary PC or laptop with XP. To do this, after POST-successful passing of testing (about this uninitiated in the meaning of this abbreviation will say "flashed" tablet) press F8. As a result, you see a menu of several items. Some of these prompt the user to enter XP safe mode. The most important for you

- safe mode,

- Safe mode with network support,

- Safe mode with command line support.

These are special modes for loading the operating roomsystems that provide for the launch of only vital services, system libraries and drivers. If after selecting, say, the third item, which is the standard XP safe mode, you will see the desktop with the corresponding ones with the corners in a while - be prepared that the system can boot up a bit slower than usual. And sometimes it does not boot at all, but this is a topic for a separate conversation. Booting in safe mode XP is also a very complex process, as it will have to go into more detail in technical details. If the system also produces a blue screen, the problematic subsystem may be a hard disk or a memory module. If the PC just hangs or reboots (the flashing cursor in the upper right corner), then the problem can be of a software nature - one of the drivers is loaded for a long time.

If everything turned out - run the staffantivirus and check the system for malicious software that will be found and destroyed. Paradoxically, sometimes boot in the familiar mode fails due to the low qualifications of virus writers. Instead of "sitting" in the system and not detecting its presence at the same time while doing destructive activity (attacking sites as one of the botnet customers or collecting your passwords from online banking), such a grief application, due to errors in the code, hangs when loading the machine, revealing its presence. If you have the latest databases, there is a high probability that after the anti-virus scanner is working, the working capacity will be restored. In addition, if possible, try to roll back the system to an earlier state (Start> All Programs> System Tools> System Restore). When it comes to changing the startup registry keys and system files, the command often helps> Warning! Common> Other actions> to restore the work, but already in normal mode. This should be done already with the help of a qualified specialist. But it happens that the computer is not loaded, but it is necessary to work, moreover, besides the network, and there is absolutely no extra time. Then download the secure XP mode with Web support. Note that if you connect to the provider using a VPN connection, you will not be able to do this. But you can get access to other computer resources through the folder> Sharing>. There is another possibility for quick recovery, which many do not even suspect, the last successful configuration. Selecting this item in the menu on F8, sometimes you can avoid reinstalling the system, which is often fraught with loss of time and data.
